The AML is an experimental laboratory sitting on the ground floor of
Warren Weaver Hall. Its main focus is on the interactions of moving
bodies or flexible structures with fluid flows as arises commonly in
biology, geophysics, and many other areas. Many of its experimental
projects are tied to mathematical modeling and simulation studies.

This Center aims to use applied mathematical methods to develop an
understanding of complex and poorly understood phenomena in the climate
system. Methods include multi-scale methods; stochastic modeling;
numerical turbulence modeling and information theory.

The Center for Data Science is a focal point for New York University's
university-wide initiative in data science and statistics. The Center was
established to help advance NYU's goal of creating the country's leading
data science training and research facilities, and arming researchers and
professionals with tools to harness the power of big data.

This laboratory supports research and educational activities in
environmental science. Emerging software and hardware capabilities in
information technology are being developed and applied so as to
integrate physical laboratory experiments, numerical models, and
real-world observational data. The ultimate objective of such an
integration is to create a deeper understanding of important phenomenon
in the natural environment. Current topics of interest tend to focus on
the polar regions and, in particular, on ice-ocean interaction and
ocean downslope mixing.

The mission of the Center for Genomics & Systems Biology is to define
how regulatory networks operate and how they have evolved to generate
diversity across species. For this work, we use approaches that span
systems biology, comparative functional genomics & bioinformatic
analysis focusing on model organisms and phylogenetically related
species. The research involves the combined skills of genomicists,
bioinformaticians, systematists, and evolutionary biologists all
working together. The genomics and bioinformatics faculty in our center
are engaged in collaborative projects with scientists at NYU's Courant
Institute of Mathematical Sciences, other scientific institutions in
the greater New York City area, including The American Museum of Natural
History (AMNH), The New York Botanical Garden (NYBG), and the Cold
Spring Harbor Laboratories (CSHL), as well as collaborators from around
the world. The unique intellectual synergisms brought about by this
collaborative genomic consortium group, enables us to develop unique
approaches to address questions of comparative functional genomics.

MAGNET is a new shared space for faculty and
students from across NYU who share an interest in the intersection of
culture and technology. MAGNET offers students the chance to pursue
degrees and research in game design, social science, digital media
design, and computer science and game engineering, and includes
undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students from NYU. The space
was co-designed by the participating schools--NYU Tisch School of the
Arts; the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development;
the Polytechnic School of Engineering; and the Computer Science
Department of the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences.

NYU WIRELESS is a multi-disciplinary academic research center that
offers an unprecedented and unique set of skills. Centered at New York
University's Brooklyn engineering location and involving faculty and
students throughout the entire NYU community, NYU WIRELESS offers its
industrial-affiliate sponsors, faculty members, and students a
world-class research environment that is creating the fundamental
theories and techniques for next-generation mass-deployable wireless
devices across a wide range of applications and markets. This center
combines NYU's Polytechnic School of Engineering program with NYU's
School of Medicine and the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences,
and offers a depth of expertise with unparalleled capabilities for the
creation of new wireless networks, theories, circuits and systems, as
well as new computational approaches and health care solutions for the
wireless industry.

Our research is focused on the task of information extraction --
analyzing text, identifying particular types of names, relations, and
events reported in the text, and building data bases recording this
information.

CTED is a research center at New York University Abu Dhabi that focuses
on the development of innovative and cutting edge technologies that can
significantly impact economic development with a specific focus on
problems faced in under-developed areas around the world. CTED is
headquartered in Abu Dhabi with branches in New York, Accra, and also
soon in Addis Ababa.
